The idea of religion simply makes sense, but has no grounds in the world in which we live.

Advancement of science will remove religion from culture

Created to keep people in line, give power to some

Created to make sense of the world � explain unexplainable

The cause is good, yet bad can come of it

Tries to make world a better place, but has pitfalls � crusades

Strikes fear into people to cause the source of power � fear is power

Religion has no place in modern society � science takeover

Religious ideals and doctrines have changed throughout years as a result of science

Idea of mind controlling aspects of life

Above leads to belief in religion

Dissecting religion � accidental success as a result of mind�s control of life and unexplainable events

Religion can be medium for bodily healing � not necessary

Body can heal self, but mediums are used to make this process easier

Only reason we believe in religion � we think we are special, but in reality are planet created by chance and we are product of evolutionary progress

Someday science will realize the world in the way which it is, no more religion

We are better than animals, next logical evolution; this is why we help each other

Furthering of our society and species

Other intelligent beings probable, an infinite amount of time could have passed to allow our evolution
